A Weird Day

Tonight's poem is based on actual events from my weird day today...

Today while at work I had just squatted down

To help with a question or two

When a strange thing occurred - for a moment or so

I didn’t know quite what to do

While I knelt there a little boy reached from behind

And he just started rubbing my head

I turned and I asked why he’d do such a thing

“Your head is so shiny!” he said.

I let that one go, and I thought we were done

I moved on from his childish crack

But that afternoon while I was teaching he said,

“Did you know you have fat on your back?”

“Yeah, your back fat’s right here,” he said, rubbing my side

And he squished it, much to my dismay

Well, what could I do? I just kept teaching on

While trying to swat him away

So as I recall these events from today

With my brain in my big shiny head

I recline on my big fatty back and conclude

I should probably just go to bed.
